Hello. I am trying to find the ED number for Boston. The family I am looking for lived at Summer and South ST in 1860. Any help will be appreciated. Best wishes. Bob.

Dorchester was primarily Ward 20 and Ward 24 Ward 20 - ED 1559 - 1572, 1934 Ward 24 - 1624 - 1631 I was just looking this up via ancestry.com myself. They did not have ED 1934 online but had no problem looking at the other ones. -- --- Ginny Chung <gchung@mindspring.com> http://www.mindspring.com/~gchung/tree.htm - Main page http://www.mindspring.com/~gchung/CemeteryMain.html - Mass Cemetery Transcriptions http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~gchung/brochterbeck/Main.htm - Brochterbeck Germany ==============================================

Can anyone tell me which census enumeration districts covered the Boston neighborhood of Dorchester in the 1910 census? Thanks.

It was a very severe, plain brick edifice, resembling a warehouse with a cupola and a cross over the front, but it could seat 800 people. It became one of the most important and densely thronged churches of the diocese. Its first pastors were: > Rev. Wm.Wiley May 1836 to April 1837 > Rev.James McDermott June to August 1837 > Rev.

Hello. I have just found out my family attened Saint Mary's Catholic Church in the North end of Boston in the mid to late 1800s. Would anyone know if the Church is still open, and if they have records going back to the 1800s? I am trying to find out where my grgrgrandfather is buried, he died in May of 1851. Any information on this will be appreciated. Thank you. Bob. Researching---TENNIHAN, O'MARA, GOGGIN, COLE, DIZOGLIO, HUDSON and MAY.

I am a new Subscriber and would appreciate any help in solving the whereabouts of the marriage of Alexander Stewart and Margaret Shearer. They had five children Alexander, Margaret, Davinia Finley Gordon, Agnes, and last of all Elizabeth Peter Gordon. Alexander and Margaret were married in Boston Mass. on 21st September 1904 according to information given on the birth certificate of their daughter Elizabeth Peter Gordon. Elizabeth Peter Gordon was born in Dundee, Scotland but unfortunately her mother Margaret Shearer died in childbirth. On the death certificate of Margaret her mother was given as Agnes Gordon and her father George Shearer who's trade was a mason. We know very little about when they lived in the USA and why they came to Dundee, Scotland. Agnes was born in USA but the rest were born in Scotland. Alexander Stewart's father was also called Alexander and his mother Annie McPherson. If I can help with any searching from England especially the north east do not hesitate to ask.

Dear Listers My name is EDWARD FELSTEAD and I live in WEST LANCASHIRE,ENGLAND. I have been searching for many many months for my G-G-Grandfather WILLIAM FELSTEAD who was born circa 1840 in "America - British Subject" Just recently I have been concentrating on BOSTON,MASSACHUSETTS where I have found FELSTEAD's in DIRECTORIES and census returns in 1880 and 1890. However I have just discovered a SAMUEL FELSTEAD who was born in BOSTON in 1829! This is only 11yrs before the birth of my G-G-GRANDFATHER!! I am desperate to find out more about SAMUEL as he may be in my directline. I have failed with all the normal sources and am appealing for help through this list. SAMUEL's details are below. If any lister can help determine for example who were SAMUEL's parents or can point me to sources of information re AFRICAN-AMERICAN's in BOSTON or can help with a look-up from census returns 1830 to 1870 I would be extremely grateful!

Peter Edes's father Benjamin was co-owner, with John Gill, of the Boston Gazette and Country Journal, beginning in 1755. The Edes and Gill print shop became a gathering place for Bostonians opposed to British rule, and the Boston Gazette published articles by John Adams, James Otis, John Hancock, Joseph Warren, Samuel Adams, and other patriots. In 1773, when Peter was seventeen, a number of Boston residents met at the Edes home to change into Indian costumes before dumping tea into Boston Harbor in what became known as the Boston Tea Party. (The China punch bowl used to serve punch to the party-goers remained in the Edes family until 1871 when it was given to the Massachusetts Historical Society.) Much more at website below. http://www.bairnet.org/histgenealogy/Edes/default.htm

Here are my suggestions: Go through ED 13-109 again, just looking at the street addresses. If you still can't find it, is it possible that the suffix is not St. but rather Pl. or Ct.? Or could it be North Bennett? I took a look at 65 Bennett St Boston at Map Quest, and it lists these other street options. On the ED calculator, if you plug in just the street name Bennett, it gives you four possible ED's to look through. Check ED's 108 and 110, for nearby locales. Maybe a Boston expert will know if the street addresses were changed, or perhaps the street was shortened due to construction at the New England Medical Center?

Subject: Diary of a British Officer in Boston in 1775 Part 6 of 6 Source: The Atlantic Monthly Magazine, Vol XXXIX. April 1877. No. CCXXXIV. Concord Battle Cont'd In this critical situation we perceived the 1st Brigade coming to our assistence - it consisted of the 4th, 23d, and 47th Regts., and the Battalion of Marines, with two field pieces, 6 pounders. We had been flattered ever since the morning with expectations of the Brigade coming out, but at this time had given up all hopes of it, as it was so late. I since heard it was owing to a mistake of the orders, or the Brigade would have been with us two hours sooner. As soon as the Rebels saw this re-inforcement, and tasted the field pieces, they retired, and we formed on a rising ground and rested ourselves a little while, which was extremely necessary for our men who were almost exhausted with fatigue. In about half an hour we marched again and some of the Brigade taking the flanking parties we marched pretty quiet for about two miles. They then began to pepper us again from the same sort of places, but at rather a greater distance. We were now obliged to force almost every house in the road, for the Rebels had taken possession of them and galled us exceedingly, but they suffered for their temerity for all that were found in the houses were put to death. When we got to Menotomy there was a very heavy fire; after that we took the shortcut into Charlestown road, very luckily for us too, for the Rebels thinking we should endeavor to return by Cambridge had broken down the bridge and had a great number of men to line the road and to receive us there. However, we threw them and went on to Charlestown without any great interruption. We got there between seven and eight o'clock at night, took possession of the hill above the town and waited for the boats to carry us over, which came some time after. The Rebels did not choose to follow us to the hill, as they must have fought us on open ground and that they did not like. 200 men of the 64th meet them at Charlestown The Piquets of the Army were sent over to Charlestown and 200 of the 64th to keep that ground; they threw up a work to secure themselves, and we embarked and got home very late in the night. Thus ended this Expedition, which from beginning to end was as ill planned and ill executed as it was possible to be; had we not idled away three hours in Cambridge marsh waiting for provisions that were not wanted, we should have had no interruption at Lexington, but by our stay the country people had got intelligence and time to assemble. We should have reached Concord soon after day break, before they could have heard of us, by which we should have destroyed more cannon and stores, which they had had time enough to convey away before our arrival. We might also have got easier back and not been so much harassed as they would not have had time to assemble so many people - even the people of Salem and Marblehead, above 20 miles off, had intelligence and time enough to march and meet us on our return; they met us somewhere about Menotomy, but they lost a good many for their pains. Thus for a few trifling stores, the Grenadiers and Light Infantry had a march of about 50 miles - going and returning. Transcribed by Janice Farnsworth

Subject: Diary of a British Officer in Boston in 1775 Part 5 Source: The Atlantic Monthly Magazine, Vol XXXIX. April 1877. No. CCXXXIV. Lexington & Concord - April 19, 1775 We met with no interruption till within a mile or two of the town, where the country people had occupied a hill which commanded the road; the Light Infantry were ordered away to the right and ascended the height in one line, upon which the Yankees quitted it without firing, which they did likewise for one or two more successively. They then crossed the River beyond the town and we marched into the town after taking possession of a Hill with a Liberty Pole on it and a flag flying, which was cut down; the Yankees had that Hill but left it to us; we expected they would have made a stand there, but they did not choose it. While the Grenadiers remained in the town, destroying 3 pieces of cannon, several gun carriages and about 100 barrels of flour, with harness and other things, the Light Companies were detached beyond the river to examine some house for more stores; one of these Companies was left at the bridge, another on a hill some distance from it, and another on a hill 1/4 of a mile from that; the other three went forward two or three miles to seek for some cannon which had been there, but had been taken away that morning. During this time the people were gathering together in great numbers, and, taking advantage of our scattered disposition, seemed as if they were going to cut off the communication with the bridge, upon which the two companies joined and went to the bridge to support that company. The three companies drew up in the road the far side of the bridge and the Rebels on the hill above, covered by a wall, in that situation they remained a long time, very near an hour, the three companies expecting to be attacked by the Rebels, who were about 1,000 strong. footnote The company left at the bridge was the light company of the 43d under the command of Lieutenant Gould of the King's Own. The other two posted on the hills nearby were the light companies of the 10th Regiment and of the King's Own (with which was, no doubt, the writer of this Diary). Capt. Lawrie, who commanded these three Companies, sent to Col. Smith, begging he would send more Troops to his Assistance and informing him of his situation; the Colonel ordered 2 or 3 Companies, but put himself at their head, by which means stopped them from being time enough, for being a very fat, heavy man, he would not have reached the bridge in half an hour, though it was not half a mile to it; in the mean time the Rebels marched into the road and were coming down upon us, when Captain Lawrie made his men retire to this side of the bridge (which by the bye he ought to have done at first, and then he would have had time to make a good disposition, but at this time he had not, for the Rebels were got so near him that his people were obliged to form the best way they could. footnote: These three light companies, under the command of Capt. Lawrence Parsons of the 10th, went to Col. Barrett's, guided by Ensign De Berniere. Walter Sloane Lawrie was of the 43d. As soon as they were over the bridge the three companies got one behind the other so that only the front one could fire; the Rebels, when they got near the bridge halted and fronted, filling the road from the top to the bottom. The fire soon began from a dropping shot on our side, when they and the front company fired almost at the same instant, there being nobody to support the front company. The others not firing the whole were forced to quit the bridge and return toward Concord; some of the Grenadiers met them in the road and then advanced to meet the Rebels, who had got this side the bridge and on a good height, but seeing the manoeuvre they thought proper to retire again over the bridge, the whole then went into Concord, drew up in the town and waited for the three companies that were gone on, which arrived in about an hour. Four Officers and eight who were at the bridge were wounded [1]; three men killed; one sergeant and several men wounded; after getting as good conviences for the wounded as we could and having done the business we were sent upon, we set out upon our return. footnote: 1 Lieutenants William Sutherland of the 38th, Waldron Kelly of the 10th (wounded again at Bunker Hill) Edward Gould of the King's Own and Edward Hull of the 43d. Before the whole had quitted the town, we were fired on from houses and behind trees, and before we had gone one half mile we were fired on from all sides but mostly from the rear, where people had hid themselves in houses till we had passed and then fired; the country was an amazing strong one, full of hills, woods, stone walls, etc., which the Rebels did not fail to take advantage of for they were all lined with people who kept an incessant fire upon us, as we did too upon them, but not with the same advantage, for they were so concealed there was hardly any seeing them - in this way we marched between nine and ten miles, their numbers increasing from all parts, while ours was reducing by deaths, wounds and fatigue; and we were totally surrounded with such an incessant fire as its impossible to conceive - our ammunition was likewise near expended.

I am looking for the ED for 65 Bennett Street in Boston for 1930. I have gone to the mapquest and typed in the address and it shows cross street as Oak then when I go to http://home.pacbell.net/spmorse/census/ and choose Bennett Street and a cross street of Oak I come up with an ED of 109 I just checked the entire 109 ED and while there is Bennett Street on there, it is for the higher numbers close to 200, nothing for the lower numbers or the 60's. So I am assuming I got the wrong cross street, does anyone know of another cross street I could use that would take me to the correct ED?
